Well just had a VERY slow drive home as the M56 appears to be closed (at least part of it) due to a bomb scare, Apparently they have found three devices and carried out controled explosions.
Nothing on the news though  Wondering if they have a blanket over them so they cant mention it

why the fuck plant bombs on the motorway where it will cause least amount of damage.
Those kind of bombs need something to "explode into" to be effective, ie inside a building or in say erm the tube

Yes because, of course, Runcorn and Ellesmere Port are right at thr top of every Terrorists hit-list 
That said... perhaps they were trying to take out Girl_Racer/Heather, if so... rock on

Bombing a motorway would cause lots of damage, if it's rushhour and solid a shrapnel based bomb is gonna take out quite a few cars, if it's moving at 30+ then a shrapnel based bomb would cause the front cars to crash and result in mass pileups!
